A recruiter contacted me via WhatsApp about a remote job position. She claimed she found my application on Job Sparkle, which I never used. I asked when I applied, but she didn't answer. Instead, she said she's been a recruiter for Cshark Singapore Pte Ltd for about eight months, a seemingly legitimate company based in Italy. The job involved boosting app developers' ratings and generating user downloads, with the promise of earning profit from developers' revenue. She assured it wouldn't affect my current job and offered a $20 sign-up bonus.

However, the sign-up link she provided was suspicious. The website was created only seven days ago, which is odd for an established company. Multiple tools confirmed the link was dubious despite having a valid SSL certificate. This confirmed my suspicion of a scam.
